Old Growth Cottonwood - Delta, Colorado

They took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum...(Big Yellow Taxi, by Joni Mitchell).The village of Delta is 40 miles south of Grand Junction. Besides the redwoods, this is the only place I've seen "old growth."

I wonder if other kinds of women got to sit in council meetings?..perhaps a D.A.R.?

Thanks Ghglenn. I'm glad *somebody* around here knows what's going on. I musta figured if it was an Indian tree the song just naturally had to be by a Native American. (I'd originally attributed the song to Buffy St Marie.)

About Me

﻿I retired from arts administration in 2004. In January of 2010 I went nomadic in my 3-cylinder 1999 Chevy (Suzuki) Metro hatchback that got 50mpg. Then, after an altercation in April 2016 with a RAM 2500 (my fault) I switched to a 1996 Geo Tracker with 4WD.
Currently (2/6/18) in the wilds of southern Arizona enjoying the warmth of climate change.
Destination is by whim.
